The Supreme Court quashed the lower court's decision holding a divorced wife liable for her ex-husband's unpaid social security contributions. The court found the tax authority failed to assess whether imposing this liability violated public order principles before making the final decision. Consequently, the case was remanded for the tax body to evaluate these social order factors before ruling again.
